Perez has been impressive for the Magpies this season and there have been speculations that the forward wants to leave the club in the summer. </p>
<p></p><center><img src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D_CYnwlXoAUoAcc.jpg" width="500" /></center>
<p>Italian side AC Milan was believed to be the favourites for his signature but the interest of Arsenal has changed the narrative. Arsenal boss Unai Emery is expected to be given a tight budget in the summer and the Spaniard views Perez as a bargain signing. </p>
<p>Perez is understood to be valued at around £25 million by Newcastle who are opened to selling in the summer. The 25-year-old has been impressive this season scoring 12 goals in 37 matches for the club including a nice finish on the last day victory at Fulham. </p>
<p>However, the Gunners could face competition from Italian outfit AC Milan who are interested in the player. Milan are also in a similar situation to Arsenal as the club transfer budget is limited after failing to qualify for the Champions League.</p>
<p>Perez is seen as a good forward to partner KryztofPiatek in attack as Patrick Cutrone has not been able to deliver consistently. The player is known to be a hard workerwith attributes that fits Emery’s ideology. The playeris known to takes advantage of goal scoring opportunities with his clinical finishing.</p>
<p>In addition he can play as an attacking midfielder just behind the striker or as part of the frontline.<br />
Arsenal have been spoiled for choice in attack as Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-EmerickAubameyang have scored goals for fun. </p>
<p>However, <a href="https://www.inc.com/john-rampton/20-tips-inspire-your-team-to-exceed-goals-each-month.html"> beyond that, there is a lack of goals in the team</a> and Perez could <a href="http://www.ilovebayernmunich.net"> be a useful option</a> from the bench.</p>
<p>This transfer looks likely as the player is decent and available for a good price, however with Milan lurking nothing can be concluded for now. </p>

The Italian tactician was appointed by the Giallorossi as the interim head coach earlier in the week after they took the decision to sack Eusebio Di Francesco following the club’s Champions League exit at the hands of Porto.</p>
<p></p><center><img src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D09VR_0W0AAeVxK.jpg" /></center>
<p>Speaking to Gianluca di Marzio, Ranieri spoke positively about his return to the Giallorossi and stated the club’s ambition to return to the Champions League next term, he said: “This a special but delicate moment - Roma's success will be decided over the next 12 match days, in which we will see if we can return to the Champions League. What do I ask of the fans? Stay close to the players because in the end, us fans are the ones who really suffer.</p>
<p>Returning here means everything to me. As a child, I was a fan of Roma, then I was a player at the club, and also a coach. This club is linked to my entire life.”</p>
<p><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2018/sep/24/revamped-roma-rapid-decline-leaves-di-francesco-in-line-of-fire">“Roma had endured a stop-start campaign under Di Francesco</a> and things became difficult for him after the shock 7-1 defeat to Fiorentina at the quarter final stage of the Coppa Italia. Thereafter, the Italian managed to keep the job with a string of positive results, but defeats in back-to-back games against Lazio and Porto <a href="https://www.ihateacmilan.com/new-resolution-team-ac-milan">“eventually convinced the board</a> to dismiss him from the helm.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, Ranieri has not enjoyed the best phase of his managerial career after recently being sacked by Fulham, who are 19th in the Premier League. As such, the appointment from Roma comes as a surprise and the veteran would be determined to prove himself during the final months of the campaign to enhance the chances of a permanent contract. </p>

<p>The new members or players will be added to the team AC Milan in 2019. This was a thought came into club manager Gennaro Gattuso’s mind. He believes that his squad needs a new face. Now the question is which player is eliminated and the fans are eagerly waiting to see decent new faces.</p>
<p>The news is going viral about changing the player. Meanwhile, the players are secretly praying to pursue their journey as a player in the team AC Milan. Milan’s possible player transfer list is somewhat decided based on their performance in the last few matches.</p>
<p>The captain of Milan team, Alessio is one of the best in playing and excellent in defending as well. So the snag may find a partner for him who will be a good defender. With Mattia and Matteo had injuries, Rino is also remaining, with just Zapata and Simic as the possible option. Milan has excellent strikers named G. Higuain and Patrick C.</p>

The manager has claimed that he is not a bit disappointed that the club’s potential deal for the former Manchester United forward fell through.</p>
<p></p><center><img src="https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTAyszz3gMOKgGYC-1iVQIM4i0fYCMOyjfQoE3LXvp_bWoiSllT" width="500" /></center>
<p>Zlatan had been tipped to return back to AC Milan this January, a club where he announced himself to the football world at a very tender age, but he has squashed the rumors saying he would rather remain in the Major League Soccer.</p>
<p>But Gattuso has played down the news of his interest in the player, insisting he was not losing sleep over the Swede’s decision and that he never even really communicated with the forward personally.</p>
<p>Speaking in a news conference, the AC Milan manager said, “I never even spoke to Ibra. When there are important people at the club like our directors, I give them their due respect and let them do their jobs (handle the club’s transfers)”.<br />
“I always knew there was a slight chance and I also knew from the first day that it would be a difficult deal to pull off. There is no disappointment at all from the outcome”, Gattuso added.</p>

<p>Ibrahimovic was seen by the club as the solution to the woes in front of the net as the experienced striker has played for various top teams in Europe’s top leagues including Barcelona, Manchester United, Inter Milan and AC Milan but the club will be left disappointed following his latest announcement.</p>

The Blues would not be as eager to lose its stars in the face of a possible four-window transfer ban recommended by FIFA.</p>
<p></p><center><img src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DAbIhmpXoAAxanR.jpg" width="500" /></center>
<p>This has not stopped Milan from attempting to lure former skipper Gary Cahill from Stamford Bridge. The 33-year old has barely gotten game time this season under coach Maurizio Sarri. The experienced player has settled for just cup competitions. With his contract set to expire at the end of the current season, the AC Milan deal would be an exciting idea for Cahill. </p>
<p>Milan could wait for the deal to happen and employ Cahill as a free player but they are believed to be open to offering the Blues some money to seal the deal. The Serie A side has seen several players injured at the same time. Cahill is an experienced player expected to hit the group running, and contribute to an ambitious season. </p>
<p>The defence at San Siro is missing Giacomo Bonaventura, Alessio Romagnoli, Mateo Musacchio, Lucas Biglia and Mattia Caldara all at the same time. The player would have loved to end his illustrious career in England but as things stand he would likely end his seven year stay at Chelsea when the deal goes through in January.</p>
<p>Aside Cahill, <a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/7865201/chelsea-ace-cesc-fabregas-expects-lots-of-offers-denies-january-ac-milan/">“there is former Arsenal playmaker Cesc Fabregas who has also fallen in the pecking order at Stamford Bridge“</a>.He is another star that Milan are hoping to lure from England. He is also out of <a href="https://www.acmilanfootballfans.info/ac-milan-weighing-up-winter-approach-for-eric-bailly/">“contract in the summer“</a>. Milan are hoping he could join as an extra creative force in attack. </p>
<p>Fabregas, 31, still have at least two years at the highest levels which Milan could enjoy if the deal goes through.</p>
<p>With Chelsea yet to sort it its FIFA case, it remains to be seen if they would sanction more assets from leaving in January as Milan would prefer. </p>

<p>Suso said that the American company has brought in some former AC Milan players such as Maldini and Leonardo who knows the club from within and that this is evident in the way the club is being run.</p>
<p>He said that it was difficult to perform under the Chinese owners as there were so much going on off the pitch and that this was affecting them on the pitch.</p>

There were fears that the Italian could go the way of his compatriot whilst in action for Chelsea. The 26-year old had a very good season at Napoli last term, and decided to follow his boss Maurizio Sarri to England for a fresh adventure.</p>
<p></p><center><img src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DEmz_68XsAE2mg7.jpg" width="500" /></center>
<p>Former Arsenal player turn pundit Paul Mersonwas concerned that the player could be another flop like Acquilani at Anfield. Acquilani came through the AS Roma youth system before making the senior team in 2003. He did well to catch the attention of the Kopites who made a big move for him in 2009 but the player failed to perform. </p>
<p>He had to be loaned back to the Serie A to play for Juve and then AC Milan, and Fiorentina. He finally moved for free to Sporting and then he moved for free to Pescara, playing also at Sassuolo before moving to Spain to feature for Las Palmas. Well his career following the Liverpool move ensured he was always on the road and never achieved his potential till he ran out of steam.<br />
Today, the 34-year old dreams of one day becoming the head coach of his boyhood club AS Roma. He believes Juventus are still favourites in the Serie A, and then Roma follow, then Napoli. </p>
<p>Merson hoped Jorginho does not go the path of Acquilani, who once had the best record for passing in Italy. The Pundit said the difference in the way the league played meant he could take time for Jorginho to settle in but the player has shocked many by producing even better start from the get go. </p>
<p>As Chelsea passed the hell out of Newcastle United in the Premier League clash, it was Jorginho that was in the heart of it. The Blues made the most passing attempt in a single game since tracking in 2003. They recorded 913 passes with Jorginho providing 173 – which is just one shy of the record Premier League record held by Gundogan of Manchester City set last term. </p>
<p>The player is proving to be a far different player from Acquilani and hopefully he can sustain the tempo as Chelsea chase the Premier League title. </p>

In a recent interview with Premium Sport, the 32-year-old said: “I read and heard of Milan interest, so it is an honour that a club like that is tracking me. I follow Italian football and know that Milan are the second club in the world in terms of Champions League titles, but at the moment I am under contract with Monaco and am focused only on Monaco and Colombia. But it’s obvious that I like Italy and Italian football.”</p>
<p></p><center><img src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Di9pFGIX0AA3DzD.jpg" width="500" /></center>
<p>The Rossoneri are understood to be eyeing a new midfielder, winger and a striker for the summer transfer window and they were surely be buoyed by the comments from Falcao. Nevertheless, the club are currently in UEFA trouble after their breach of the Financial Fair Play regulations and any penalties levied could hamper their chances of spending on fresh recruits without offloading a few.</p>
<p>Milan spent close to £200m on 11 separate signings during the previous summer transfer window and the move was purely made in an attempt to propel the side into the Champions League. However, the club struggled to come anywhere close to the top-four of the Serie A and they eventually ended the campaign in sixth with an eight-point to the Champions League spots.</p>
<p>As such, Milan will once again ply their trade in the group stage of the Europa League, though they could be stripped off their European place after breaching the Financial Fair Play regulations. UEFA are expected to make a decision on Milan’s European involvement during the month of June and their possible exclusion could be regarded as a huge blow in their pursuit of top quality players.</p>

The Rossoneri were one of the big spenders in Europe last year as they brought in 11 different recruits, but this has not enhanced their chances of finishing in the top four.</p>
<p></p><center><img src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C1uF1xUXgAA9XZW.jpg" width="500" /></center>
<p>The San Siro outfit started the season in a relatively slow fashion, and despite making progress in the second-half of the campaign, and they appear to have fallen short of their quest for Champions League football. Speaking about the club’s transfer plans for the summer, Gattuso said: “There will be very few signings and I am happy with that because these players are some of the best in the world. Some of them will improve.We will dip into the transfer market to sign a few players to help this team, but don't expect 20 or 30 new signings. It is my duty is to coach the team.”</p>
<p>Meanwhile, Nikola Kalinic was jeered off the pitch during last week’s draw versus Napoli, but Gattuso admitted that he was not pleased with the reception received, he added: “I look at [Kalinic's] performance and he made five or six incredible movements - he helped us. But I was angry with the whistles - they seemed to me a bit unfair.”</p>
<p>With just six games remaining, Milan are eight points behind AS Roma and <a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/6248713/gennaro-gattuso-inter-milan-manchester-united-andrea-pirlo/">Lazio</a>, who are third and fourth respectively, and their chances of qualifying for the Champions League are dependent on their rivals dropping points whilst improving on their form. After going a three-month unbeaten run in the Serie A, Milan have picked up just three points from their last four matches, and their winless streak has been hugely influential on their league position. Milan take on Torino in midweek before facing bottom side Benevento over the weekend.</p>

The teenager had come under extreme criticism from the fans after he turned down a contract earlier in the summer, but he eventually committed his future to the Rossoneri until the summer of 2022.</p>
<p></p><center><img src=" https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Da_a0HqXUAEBI1P.jpg" width="500" /></center>
<p>In an interview quoted by ESPN, Raiola appeared to entice the 19-year-old to secure a big-money move with a number of elite offers waiting for him, he said: “Gigio made a choice, of staying at Milan, and I respect it. However, if he were to ask me to leave, I would get straight to work because there are big offers for him. In fact, if it were up to me, Gigio would leave Milan.”</p>
<!--more--><p>
The 19-year-old had a slow start to the season with the Rossoneri, who struggled to cope with the vast number of changes in the first-team squad. However, as the season has gone by, Donnarumma’s performances have improved with the backline, and he has managed to keep clean sheets in nearly 50 percent of the games in all competitions.</p>
<p>Raiola has tended to gain plenty of fortune from big-money signings over the past few transfer windows, and it appears that the Italian has the same agenda with Donnarumma. However, his suggestion is likely to fall on deaf ears, considering Milan are grooming a strong contingent of young Italian players, which include Alessio Romagnoli, Davide Calabria, Andrea Conti, Manuel Locatelli and Patrick Cutrone.</p>
